[Virt]

I'll PM you when I get home flatline. We have like 4 tent bags and I need to know if any have tents in them first!!!

Me and Adyf are going out to ride the second half of the route

Will be checking out the petrol stations and cafe stops

Hope to get some pictures

After deliberating with myself with a sensible sober head, as much as I would like to, I wont be able to make it. It's this or upgrade my forks. I would like to get my forks done in time for the Wales trip which I have my name down for, and there's the Monopoly run soon.

(:-})

Shame buddy

[Flatline]

There is about 50 miles of this

There is about 50 miles of this

Who's bringing the petrol tanker then? Don't think storms' can handle 50 miles of empty country roads

Flatly, I am downgrading myself to a NO

Will be out in USA for a week and need to fly on 26th and then off to the TT the as soon as I get home.

Have fun guys

Sorry Flatline but it's a no for me too, I'm also going to the practice week of the TT

Have fun everyone, try and keep the right way up

[Virt]

Won't have been paid in time for this so I'm gonna have to pull out actually as I won't be able to afford it bummer. I'll hopefully meet some of you on the July and September rides though

Read the second post buddy

[Flatline]

Although these meetings involves camping, you don't have to camp

You are welcome to come along to the run without having to stay overnight

You are also welcome to come along on Friday and Saturday evening to meet everyone

And you can join us during the ride to enjoy part of the route

And as you can see, This ride will be split into 2 groups to cater for intermediate/less experienced riders

So there is no worry about being new/slow/inexperienced or even fast, there is a group for you

I can tell you now that meeting members of the forum really makes a difference to the online experience

So why not make the effort to get along to one of the meetings?

You won't be disappointed and you will be welcome

[Ckennedy]

You sound like a salesmen flatline

I don't need to be convinced, the route you took me on when I was up there last year was enough to sell me.

Cmon lads the more the merrier, it will be a good weekend

Hi buddy was looking at the length of the ride it's like over 7 hours it said, will the group be stopping for a sit down at some point like for any food? I don't want to sound like an old git but my new one is not as comfortable at distance as the storm and I'm worried I'll be broken if i don't get off it for a period and stretch back

Lol I'm with you mate, I'm not going to be particularly comfy on mine, so will definitely be making stops. Luckily loads of good places to stop in the Dales.

Don't worry seb, the stormers will have to stop every 50 miles for fuel


oh wait, mine ain't much better. In fact it's probably worse. Fook!
